Best Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) universities in Germany [Rankings]

Below is a list of best universities in Germany ranked based on their research performance in Human-Computer Interaction. A graph of 1.11M citations received by 61.3K academic papers made by 118 universities in Germany was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
